On this week’s podcast, Bryan Soukup covers the topic of occupational licensing and how burdensome regulations have impacted the industry of interior design. We also discuss how the emergence of COVID-19 has changed the way interior designers do their job.

Bryan is the Vice President of Government and Public Affairs for the American Society of Interior Designers (ASID). He leads the Society’s strategic efforts to advocate for the interior design profession from a legislative, regulatory, and policy perspective before the federal and state governments. He is the Society’s sole registered federal lobbyist and chief advocate at the state and local levels. Previously, Soukup worked in law, politics, and government relations. He has worked on statewide political campaigns in Tennessee, has been the chief legislative advocate for a variety of national organizations and charities, and is an internationally published author on several law and policy subjects.

    Very interesting interview. It will be interesting to see how our interior design changes. Not as much open concept, etc.
